Abstract

The philosophical and psychological work of Carl Gustav Jung has highlighted the concepts of holistic body and soul as key elements in the discursive production of statements of the collective unconscious, its archetypes and their resulting synchronicities. This study is a highlight of his works: "Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle" and "The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious", aspects of the body and soul into them present, investigating the similarities, differences and joints of the binomial body-soul in the context peculiar to each work, aimed at the design of body and soul in the process of re-articulation of approaches, promoted the work of Jung. From such analysis, we seek to investigate the hypothetical changes in focus made by Jung in "Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle" with regard to the body-soul in this book, addressed in a plural and de-individualized, depending on the production multifaceted subject symbolic and archetypal. In correlation with the design of body and soul more fully, implemented in "The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious", through the notion of holistic perception of the individual, investigating their links with the sayings of the Collective Unconscious, Synchronicity and the phenomena of ESP and PK in epistemic-historical process of formation of the psychological subject.
